you must surround yourself with twinkles and glitter.
To dance with the fairies,
put your dancing shoes on.
Wear your pink tutu.
Sing with delight.
Laugh out loud.
Giggle.
Oh yes, to dance with the fairies
is our JOY and DELIGHT.

Do you have these dreams to dance with the fairies?
I do. I would dance in the dampness and spongy ground in the woods.
Lift my voice in sweet words and tunes.
Twirl in my tutu with my ballet slippers on my toes.
Yes, my heart would be full of JOY and DELIGHT.

Isn't this the perfect place to dance with the fairies?

My garland of roses and my pink tutu are ready.
Do you want to come along?

Can you just image this ice skater with his white scarf flying, swirling in the wind?

Such imagery in just a few words.

There is an "icy dark" that surround us in the midst of winter. To tell you the truth, I am tired of it now.It is beautiful for awhile, but then it can go away.Today we are expecting a layer of ice added to our snow.There is hope for tomorrow,as it is suppose to begin warming.Then there will be an abundance of water.

Are you tired of hearing me complain and share pictures of the white stuff?I am!!!!

There is a pot of tea sitting here and I am sipping to sooth my soul.In my cup is Steven Smith Teamaker's limited edition Wuyi Whiskey full leaf black tea.It is a robust tea, just the thing called for on an icy day."A delicate, full leaf black tea smoked with pine needles, then scentedin a Westward Whisky barrel to impart oak, caramelized sugar and bright notesof whiskey." Normally I don't add a splash of milk, but this one I think ismade all the more special with the milk. Quite perfect for the "icy dark".

About Me

Many things bring great delight to me: tea, gardens, flowers, outdoors, food, and friends that cross my path. These all make my heart sing with small chuckles, giggles, laughter, and tears. It is my desire to seek beauty all around me, have the heart of a wanderer, a storyteller.
